I'm a translator myself, and I spot such things everyday.
on our satellite receiver remote control.
when you choose Arabic, and try to mute, it appears as انخراس :D
I don't know if this applies to all brands of sattelite receivers

I am a translator too, although I don't do subtitles, and sometimes when I watch a subtitled film I have to laugh at places where you are supposed to cry, all because of the funny translation. Most of the times I either turn the subtitles off or try to ignore them...doesn't always work, though!
